  1. Little confused where you are getting the 100 dollar number from. It is listed on their website for 39.99, which is an okay price for the plane.
  2. I have been busy over the past few weeks and bought: Flightbeam: KDEN KIAD KPHX FSDreamTeam: KIAH CYVR KLAX PMDG: 737 - 700/600 expansion pack
  3. Would you happen to have had a gear failure?
  4. It looks stunning. I hope that it is not too long until release.
  5. How is KORD? I was interested in it, but the screenshots make it look quite aged.
  6. I know that it is not on your list, but the C337 has been one of their best releases ever. It has a few bugs, like all Carenado planes, but there is something about the immersion factor with the plane.
  7. Here is my list: Careened C337 - Not sure what it is with this plane, but I really like it PMDG 737 - No explanation needed Majestic Q400 - The new benchmark for immersive commercial airliners AXE - Fun every now and then A2A C172 - Never really enjoyed this plane that much. I am not sure why. Quality Wings ARJ - Fun besides user error with the autopilot
  8. With all of the added discounts that pcaviator is offering, this is very tempting.
  9. Another good, but less complex option is the Carenado C208. It will get into anywhere and has the power to climb out of anything.
  10. If you pass the entrance exam, Flying Tigers Group provides a lot of different airlines throughout the world.
  11. Wow, there are a lot of really good deals.
  12. From what I know, then you are looking at a full reinstall of fsx and your addons. This time though when reinstalling make sure to choose the installation location carefully. The problem is that even if you could somehow force the pmdg plane to install, every other plane that you would purchase would have the same problem, thereby necessitating a full reinstall. One last hope other then a full reinstall might be to try some of the other registry repair tools for fsx.
  13. Did you ever move your fsx folder ever? I had a similar problem and the fix that worked for me was to run flight1's registry repair tool. It can be found for free on their website.
  14. It is this and the DA crj. Neither seem to ever have progress, which is sad. Two of the planes that are the most needed by the fs community cannot seem to be finished.
  15. Ahh, now I am really struggling to resist. I just bought a ton of stuff, but this is so tempting. I guess that I have all weekend to decide.
  16. Do people still feel that the ms-11 is still wort the money? It looks quite tempting right now.
  17. This is the best I could do with your price point.

(Generated by PCPartPicker 2014-05-25 16:35 BST+0100) You do not want to drop much lower in terms of parts. Anything lower and you will pay dearly in performance for the little bit of cost savings. If I were you, I would wait for a little bit longer and save up enough to buy a rock solid build in which you will have no regrets.
  18. For me, it is less about how exactly accurate the Vc and more about the immersion factor. My top ones are: PMDG NGX Majestic Q400 Carenado Cessna 337 Airbus x Extended
  19. Great pics. It sure is a special place.
  20. I would just stick to the airplanes, so that everything can be run on ok settings. Do not expect super high fps, but it should be playable. I would start with an add-on like the NGX and see how how computer handles that. Then add more.
  21. I know that you probably really want a computer now, but waiting really would help. You don't want to spend that much money and not be happy with what you got. Otherwise I would turn to ebay. You might be able to find some great deals on some of the products.
  22. Nvidia is the preferred maker for fsx video cards. It all depends on what your budget is. For a budget build, here is about the minimum that you can get away with.

(Generated by PCPartPicker 2014-04-21 22:12 EDT-0400) Be aware though that FSX is an old program and it is not possible to run it fully maxed out. Compromises will have to be made.
  23. I have to agree with the Dubai recommendation. Dubai really is one stunning scenery.
  24. To find pictures with wing flex on an a320 series plane, one much selectively search through a large number of pictures. This low number of pictures that demonstrate wing flex, shows how little flex that there is. Google almost any picture of a 737 and wing flex is visible.
